Recent Developments Show
Food Situation Is More
Serious Than Public
Thinks.
! ;e careful husbanding af available
- .;rIies and the intelligent conserva
". n of foods in every American house
''Id are the means of supplying the
requirements of the allied nations, ac
cording to Gurdon VV. Wattles, fed
eral food administrator for Nebraska.
Facts developed recently through
out the allied nations emphasize the
real seriousness of the situation, per
haps not as keenly realized by the
American people as they should be.
That there is a serious shortage of
foodstuffs and that nothing but the
most direct action will make possible
that supply are shown by these facts.
In Switzerland, a neutral country,
the people there are being rationed on
severe lines. They are'allowed but one
pound of sugr per month per person;
rice cards are issued where the limit
is placed at one pound per month per
person; the bread card allows on-half
pound per person per day and this in
cludes biscuits and cakes; only one
pound of flour per month per person
i. allowed. .
Close on Sundays.
All shops where foods are sold,
must be closed on Sundays and holi
'iays, and on other days they must
open at 8:30 in the morning and close
at 7 o'clock in the evening. Excep
tions are made in the case of bakers,
milk and butcher shops, which may
open an hour earlier.
Bread cards issued in France late in
October permitted allowances to
adults of 1.1 rounds of bread daily
with exceptions in the case of those
whose labor justified a little higher
rationing. This ration, however, has
been cut since because of shortage in
wheat supply.
An interesting sidelight in the mat
ter of meat production in the United
States is that people in the United
States consumed more than 10 pounds
of beef more per capita for the fiscal
year than in the previous year. The
average consumption for each person
was 65.04 pounds.
Kill One-Fourth of Cattle.
This caused the slaughter of more
than one-fourth of the total rattle in
the country last year instead of a
trifle more than one-fifth, which pre
. iotisly prevailed.
Recent statements in American pa
pers that there is no shortage in foods
in France and other allied nations are
absolutely untrue, says the United
States food administration in a state
ment issued from the Washington of
fice. These statements are militating
against the vital success of the food
..-onservation program, continues the
tatemcnt.
Europe Must Have Wheat.
"Furope must have from"us nearly
f "0,0(44,000 bushels'' of wheat." says
Mr. Vittles. "That looks like an en
ormous amount but we must supply
it. And we can't supply it unless we
are willing to substitute some other
food for a part of the wheat we or
dinarily use.
"Suppose that each week every one
of us would use four pounds of wheat
flour instead of five and substitute
one pound of other flour. By this
saving alone we would he able to send
220,000.000 bushels across the water,
more than one-half the amount; We
had exported all the available stuff
up to November 1 and the additional
export must come from saving.
"It's a big figure we are dealing
in but this is a day of big things and
we must do in a big way."

Want .V
Farmers of Nebraska to .
Meet in Omaha This Week
cf.B.Gi'iimeU
The eighth annual convention of the
Nebraska Farmer's' congress is to be
held in Omaha, Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday of this week and it is
expected that the meetings will bring
several hundred farmers from various
parts of the state. The meetings will
be held at the Hotel Castle that is
designated as the headquarters.
At the meeting of the farmers' con
gress to be held this week, price fix
ing and conservation will be the lead
ing topics that will be up for con
sideration. Of course there will be
the addresses of welcome and the re
sponses, but the discussion of how to
best conserve food and fuel and aid
the government will have the right-of-way
as soon as the preliminaries are
out of the way and the convention
j gets down to business.
I Farmers who are leaders in their
I respective communities will be here
by the score, but among these there
are probably none who have had more
to do with creating interest in the
Omaha convention and laboring along
'the line of conservation than T R
Grinnell. Papillion, secretary of the
congress; Frank Tannehill, Norfolk.
